Kept his head in the clouds With any cheap high he could cull In his cancered impala And his hog shirts And his head tapes played dull He lived in a company house In the pardeesville woods With a stir crazy dog And a graveyard of old "jimmy" hoods Sundays we'd run for his stash At the new york state line That summer when moments of Circumstance altered like wine (chorus) This is for the man This is for the days that we killed Was it my wind of change Or just a breeze at the top of the hill He didn't talk the gold ring He just schemed for a skeleton key But when you think you met thunder You only see what your head wants to see He threw back-mountain parties Five deep at the "well" With his girlfriend, louise, who'd get lit And tell us all "go to hell" Then he'd get liquored up And throw me the keys and yell "drive" With him and louise in the back Doin' "american pie" He'd talk of out west over beer And the garbage that we ate 'bout the punk band he'd managed In phoenix in '78 I was this kid of sixteen the enamored Impressionable kind In the poetic pull of the passion Of life with the lines (chorus) He just disappeared that mid-august Not even a shout Then i read in the news that september That his time had run out How he tried to outrun a state trooper Down 93 south A charge of possession is why he fled Said word of mouth The paper said nothin' was left But the seats and the frame And i read in the write-up For the first time his real name; Birthplace unknown, not from nowhere No close family Just a wild river running That cut it too fast to the sea I still raise a glass once a year On the night that he died Though hindsight says He only let me believe that we'd ride Lord, he still taps a vein in my mind Like a summer rain cools Long after that river ran dry And reality ruled (chorus2x) Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Barefoot Bride, Caroline, Holy Roadside, I Wanna Hide, In My Garden, Living Thing, Powerful Karma, Precious, Skin Im In, Skin Im In, Slave, 40 Days & 40 Fights, 40 Days amp 40 Fights, 40 Days 40 Fights, A Better Way, A Minor Incident, A Peak You Reach, About A Boy, Above You, Below Me, All Possibilities, All Possibillites, All Possibilties, Another Devil Dies, Another Pearl, Bedside Story, Black And White Dream (Demo), Born Again, Bottle Of Tears, Camping Next To Water, Cause A Rockslide, Celebrate, Champing Next To Water, Chaos Theory, Come On Eileen, Coming In To Land, Coming Into Land, Disillusion, Distant Town, Donna And Blitzen, Donna Blitzen, Donna Blitzen (1998 version), Easy Love, Epitaph, Everybodys Stalking, Everybodys Talking, Everybodys Stalking, Everybodys Talking, Fewer Words, Four Leaf Clover, Golden Days, Other Badless, The song Lyrics 34 Winters Lyrics A Better Way To Save The World Lyrics A Fever Lyrics A Little Faith Lyrics A Matter Of Time Lyrics Aint No Man Lyrics Amazing Grace To You Lyrics Angeline Is Coming Home Lyrics Angels Of Mercy Lyrics Appalachian Scream Lyrics Back Where We Came From (the Na Na Song) Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Badloves Lyrics Badly Drawn Boy Lyrics Badly Preserved Lyrics Badric Nina Lyrics Badu Erykah Lyrics Erykah Badu Lyrics Baek Ji Young Lyrics Baez Joan Lyrics Bagaskara Katon Lyrics Bagatelle Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
